Model Munroe Bergdorf has recounted a horrific attack in which she was ‘locked up in a room for two hours’ and brutally raped by a man who stalked her after a night out. The transgender activist, 34, opened up about the horrifying attack on Loose Women panel. She described the terrifying assault by a man she met on a night out and who stalked her, finding out where she lived and worked. She also said she believes the ‘demonisation’ of transgender bodies ultimately led to her attacker carrying out sexual violence.Panelist Kll Bryan asked what her lowest moment was during those years of ‘coming out’ and feeling ‘ostracised’. She replied: ‘There was a really difficult time in the book, I was sexually assaulted right at the beginning of my transition. 
‘I had this encounter because society demonises our bodies so much to the point where men who find us attractive are being fed it is so wrong that they do it in secret and often enact sexual violence on us. ‘I was locked in a room for two hours and raped, I was stalked for six hours before, I met him on a night out and then he found where I lived and where I worked and raped me very badly. ‘It just sent me on a really dark trajectory because there was no help and socially and culturally things have gotten worse and we are being painted as the people you should be looking out for when really we are all being affected with misogyny and violence against women.’ 
Speaking to The Guardian Munroe recently said: ‘When you look at someone and you know they want to kill you, and they dont see you as human enough to respect you when you say ‘no, you dont want to have sex with them’, and [they] rape you anyway, that just kills a part of you.”I dont know how I can unsee that. I still struggle to think of that period because I lost all hope. After that, I started hating myself a lot and entered abusive relationships because I didnt think I deserved any more.’ The post Transgender model Munroe Bergdorf reveals she was ‘locked in a room for two hours’ and brutally raped by manwhostalkedher appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
